Abstract

Provided are monoclonal antibodies, antigen-binding fragments thereof, and combinations of the foregoing, that bind to, and inhibit the activity of, c-Met, and that are effective in treating cancers and other diseases, disorders, or conditions where pathogenesis is mediated by c-Met.

Claims (19)

1. A purified monoclonal antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, that binds human c-Met, comprising three light chain complementarity determining regions (LCDRs) and three heavy chain complementarity determining regions (HCDRs), wherein said three LCDRs and said three HCDRs are a LCDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence SVSSSVSSIYLH (SEQ ID NO: 53), a LCDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence STSNLAS (SEQ ID NO: 54), a LCDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence IQYSGYPLT (SEQ ID NO: 55), a HCDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence GYTFTDYYMH (SEQ ID NO: 65), a HCDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence RVNPNRGGTTYNQKFEG (SEQ ID NO: 66), and a HCDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence TNWLDY (SEQ ID NO: 67).

2. A purified monoclonal antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, that binds human c-Met, comprising three light chain complementarity determining regions (LCDRs) and three heavy chain complementarity determining regions (HCDRs), wherein said three LCDRs and said three HCDRs are a LCDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence SVSSSVSSIYLH (SEQ ID NO: 53), a LCDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence STSNLAS (SEQ ID NO: 54), a LCDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence QVYSGYPLT (SEQ ID NO: 56), a HCDR1 comprising the amino acid sequence GYTFTDYYMH (SEQ ID NO: 65), a HCDR2 comprising the amino acid sequence RVNPNRRGTTYNQKFEG (SEQ ID NO: 68), and a HCDR3 comprising the amino acid sequence ANWLDY (SEQ ID NO: 69).

3. The monoclonal antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, of claim 1 , which comprises a light chain variable region (LCVR) and a heavy chain variable region (HCVR), wherein the LCVR comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 4 and the HCVR comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 16.

4. The monoclonal antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, of claim 2 , which comprises a light chain variable region (LCVR) and a heavy chain variable region (HCVR), wherein the LCVR comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 5 and the HCVR comprises the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 17.

5. The monoclonal antibody of claim 3 , wherein said antibody comprises a light chain having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 28 and a heavy chain having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 40.

6. The monoclonal antibody of claim 4 , comprising a light chain having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 29 and a heavy chain having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 41.

7. The monoclonal antibody of claim 5 , comprising two light chains having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 28 and two heavy chains having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 40.

8. The monoclonal antibody of claim 6 , comprising two light chains having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 29 and two heavy chains having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 41.

9. A pharmaceutical composition, comprising the monoclonal antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, of claim 1 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, or excipient.

10. A pharmaceutical composition, comprising the monoclonal antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, of claim 2 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, or excipient.

11. A pharmaceutical composition, comprising the monoclonal antibody of claim 7 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, or excipient.

12. A pharmaceutical composition, comprising the monoclonal antibody of claim 8 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, or excipient.

13. The monoclonal antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, of claim 2 , wherein said antibody comprises a light chain having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 29 and a heavy chain having an IgG4 heavy chain constant region.

14. The monoclonal antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, of claim 4 , wherein said antibody comprises a light chain having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 29 and a heavy chain having an IgG4 heavy chain constant region.

15. The monoclonal antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, of claim 14 , wherein the amino acid sequence of said light chain is encoded by SEQ ID NO: 35, and the amino acid sequence of said heavy chain is encoded by SEQ ID NO: 47.

16. The monoclonal antibody of claim 15 , wherein the antibody comprises two light chains and two heavy chains and wherein the amino acid sequence of said light chains is encoded by SEQ ID NO: 35, and the amino acid sequence of said heavy chains is by SEQ ID NO: 47.

17. A pharmaceutical composition, comprising the monoclonal antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, of claim 4 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, or excipient.

18. A pharmaceutical composition, comprising the monoclonal antibody, or antigen-binding fragment thereof, of claim 15 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, or excipient.

19. A pharmaceutical composition, comprising the monoclonal antibody of claim 16 , and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent, or excipient.
